Psalms 69:13-18

13But as for me, Lord, my prayer to you is for a time of favor. In your abundant, faithful love, God, answer me with your sure salvation.

14Rescue me from the miry mud; don’t let me sink. Let me be rescued from those who hate me and from the deep water.

15Don’t let the floodwaters sweep over me or the deep swallow me up; don’t let the Pit close its mouth over me.

16Answer me, Lord, for your faithful love is good. In keeping with your abundant compassion, turn to me.

17Don’t hide your face from your servant, for I am in distress. Answer me quickly!

18Come near to me and redeem me; ransom me because of my enemies.
